QCGACTVC
A Traditional Chinese DBCS active sort table used to store the sort
collating sequences for the Traditional Chinese double-byte character set.
QCGACTVK
A Korean DBCS active sort table used to map Hanja characters to Hangeul
characters with equivalent pronunciation.
QCGMSTRS
A Simplified Chinese DBCS master sort table used to store the sort
information for the Simplified Chinese double-byte character set.
QCGACTVS
A Simplified Chinese DBCS active sort table used to store the sort collating
sequences for the Simplified Chinese double-byte character set.
You may sort Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese
double-byte characters. Each of these languages have two DBCS sort tables, a
DBCS master sort table and a DBCS active sort table, except for Korean which has
only a DBCS active sort table. The DBCS master sort table contains sort
information for all defined DBCS characters. The DBCS active sort table for
Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese is created from the master
sort table information and contains the collating sequences for the double-byte
characters of that given language. These collating sequences have a purpose similar
to the EBCDIC and ASCII collating sequences for the single-byte alphanumeric
character set. For Korean characters, the Hangeul characters are assigned both their
collating sequence as well as their DBCS codes according to their pronunciation.
Hence, a separate collating sequence is not required, and each of the Hanja
characters is mapped to a Hangeul character of the same pronunciation using the
DBCS active sort table QCGACTVK.
All DBCS sort tables have an object type of *IGCSRT.
Commands for DBCS sort tables
The following commands allow you to manage and use DBCS sort tables.
v Check Object (CHKOBJ)
v Save Object (SAVOBJ)
v Restore Object (RSTOBJ)
v Copy DBCS Sort Table (CPYIGCSRT) (for Japanese table only)
v Delete DBCS Sort Table (DLTIGCSRT)
v Start Character Generator Utility (STRCGU) (information on CGU can be found
in the ADTS/400: Character Generator Utility book.)
Using DBCS sort tables on the system
You can save the tables to tape or diskette, delete them from the system, and
restore them to the system. The Japanese DBCS master sort table can also be
copied to a data file and copied from a data file so that it can be shared with a
System/36 or Application System/Entry (AS/Entry) system. You can also add sort
information for each user-defined character, and add that character to the DBCS
collating sequence, as you create it using the character generator utility.
